Vince Russo’s The Brand Recap – Enzo Amore Getting Ribbed, WWE’s Need for Crossover Stars, Creative Freedom in WWE, More!

Russo is joined on today’s show by his co-host Jeff Lane and Glenn Gilbertti (Disco Inferno).

Lane mentions that rumours have circulated that Enzo Amore is deathly afraid of heights, and WWE made a joke of him by having him suspended above the ring in a shark cage during a SummerSlam match featuring Big Show and Big Cass. Russo says that if Amore is actually afraid of heights this was more of a rib than WWE trying to make a point.

Gilbertti says that if he was backstage he would have suggested that WWE officials not go ahead with that angle because if Amore ever gets angry and leaves the company, he could very well sue them for putting him in that position.

Gilbertti points out that he feels bad for Corbin after his failed cash-in attempt last Tuesday, but he admits that those final few minutes of Smackdown Live made for great television. He adds that WWE appears to be booking to bury people as of late because they’ve buried multiple talents like Bayley, Amore, and Corbin, while failing to get anyone over to a high degree.
